Hello All,
Well I finally did it and the overtime was worth it . Turbo and air to water intercooler, couldn't be happier. Would recommend it to anyone considering forking out the dough.3 weeks to go and we're off around Oz. Can't wait.
Thanks to everyone who gave advice on the turbo.
Cheers
Brad

G'day Brad
What turbo + intercooler did you go for? Did they give you any hp outputs? Good luck with the trip!!

Brad, I am looking at the same thing myself at the moment, can you give some more details please.
1. What year is your LC?
2. How many km's has your LC done?
3. Cost?
4. Do you do any towing, if so what weight?
5. Expected power/torque gain?
6. Did you have an exhaust fitted?

I think I will be going for a similar set-up my self soon, just trying to decide which brand and who to install.
Thanks, Charlie

G'day Charlie
1. 2003
2. 80,000 km's
3. $5300 (already had a 2 1/2 exhaust)
4. Coromal pop top ~ 1800 kg fully loaded
5. from 89 kw pre turbo to 140 kw post
6. 2 1/2 inch

Give the company I mentioned in the previuos follow up a call if you are in WA they had one there that I was able to take for a test drive which was the clincher for me.
Hope this helps
Brad.
